Rekreate's AI video editor lets you change a video with plain language. Upload a 3–10-second clip and type an instruction like "make it golden hour and add light rain" or "replace the coffee cup with a can of sparkling water". Google's Gemini Omni model re-renders the clip while keeping the subject, framing and motion.

It is ideal for short-form creators and marketers who need quick variations of a hook, a product swap or a new setting without reshooting or learning professional editing software.

Key takeaways
  • Edit videos with text instructions instead of a timeline.
  • Powered by Gemini Omni — keeps people, framing and motion consistent.
  • Works on source clips of 3–10 seconds; perfect for hooks and b-roll.
  • Save results to your history and share the best edits to the community gallery.

How to edit a video with a prompt

  1. Upload a short clip

    Choose a 3–10-second video: a hook, a product shot or b-roll. Shorter, well-lit clips give the cleanest results.

  2. Describe the change

    Say what to change and what to keep, for example: "Keep the woman, pose and camera identical. Change her jacket to red and make it evening with neon reflections." Use Enhance prompt for a clearer instruction.

  3. Generate and compare

    Review the result, try another instruction for a variation, and download the version you like.

What you can change

EditExample prompt
Lighting and time of day "Make it golden hour with long warm shadows."
Weather and atmosphere "Add light snow falling, keep everything else the same."
Objects and products "Replace the mug in her hand with a white skincare bottle."
Clothing and colors "Change the hoodie to a navy blue wool coat."
Setting and style "Turn the office background into a cozy café interior."
Camera feel "Add a slow push-in and shallow depth of field."

AI video editing for short-form content

Test more hooks from one shoot. Film one opening shot, then generate daylight, night and studio versions and see which one keeps viewers watching.

Localize ads visually. Adapt seasons, settings or props for different markets while keeping the same performance.

Fix details without reshooting. Remove a distracting object or change a color that clashes with your brand.

Polish AI-generated clips. Refine a scene made with Seedance, Kling or Veo with one more instruction.

For longer videos with cuts, captions and music, pair the AI editor with Rekreate's recreation workflow: start from a viral reference, recreate the script and produce the full Reel.

Tip: the more precisely you describe what must stay unchanged ("same face, same pose, same camera"), the more consistent the edit. Change one or two things per generation.

Frequently asked questions

What is an AI video editor?

An AI video editor changes the content of a video from a text instruction — lighting, objects, clothing, background or style — instead of manual cutting, masking and color grading.

Which AI model does Rekreate use for editing?

Rekreate's AI video editor is powered by Google's Gemini Omni, a multimodal model built for conversational video generation and editing.

How long can my video be?

Source clips should be between 3 and 10 seconds, which matches how Gemini Omni processes edits.

Can I edit videos with people in them?

Yes, the model is designed to keep people consistent. Do not edit real people into misleading situations or use someone's likeness without consent.

Is the AI video editor free?

Editing uses Rekreate credits. New users can start with a free trial.

Can I add captions and music too?

Use Rekreate's recreation workflow and caption presets for full Reels with captions, voice-over and music; the AI editor focuses on changing the visuals of a clip.
